Where does this need come from?
This need to control another person.
To control what they do, how they live, how they decide?
Is it based on deep down insecurities,
a concept of if I have control,
I can manage things better,
I can be satisfied.
Or is it based on a narcissistic trait of evil,
wanting to make people suffer and wanting to gain from anothers pain.
If it is based on the second concept,
How do you live with the shame?
Our life on earth is to learn,
so we can improve and understand ourselves.
It is not for the destruction
or prevention of an others liberty.
It is for us all to live in peace and harmony.
The universe gives us opportunities,
which are there for us to take,
not to be taken away by those
whose greed is at stake.
Those at the top
want to stay safe and secure,
so they come out with notions,
which they pass off as the cure.
It is now the time to get back to basics.
Unlearn what we have been taught.
We must align with nature
and stop all the rot.
Time for all this control to stop.
Time for people to live the life they choose.
With this comes responsibility of course,
if we remember this we will have nothing to lose.
A life without freedom is like a body without a soul.
Remember this and remember your role.

This is an excellent poem. Every human being seeks freedom but it doesn't come to all because everywhere we are chained and it's hard to escape. Still what the poetess expresses is value laden. Top score for this thoughtful write.
